SafetyLit is a free "online source for current and past scholarly research about all aspects of injury prevention". It is a database of summaries of "scholarly" reports and journal articles about injury occurrence and risk factors.

It is a service provided by the Center for Injury Prevention Policy and Practice at the San Diego State University's Graduate School of Public Health, in collaboration with the World Health Organization.

The database includes more than 200,000 items. "Articles are considered relevant if they concern any of the pre-event or event elements of the Haddon Matrix; the epidemiology of injury; or the financial, personal, or societal costs or consequences of the injury or any risk factor." Full-text is not included, however the full record of most items includes the DOI as a link, which might link CSU on-campus users to the full-text of the item within a CSU subscription (this is not reliable, however).

Users can browse the archive or search using Basic or Advanced Search, browse the journal sources, subscribe to a weekly update, or view the current week's update.

SafetyLit includes on its About Us page the following disclaimer: "SafetyLit provides information not advice – Important: the articles and reports summarised in each SafetyLit update are NOT screened for quality".

SAGE Journals Online provides online full-text access to the hundreds of journals published by SAGE. These journals are in the subject areas of business, humanities, medicine, science, social sciences, and technology.

CSU staff and students have some full-text access to most of the journals in this database. In Advanced Search, you can limit your search to “Only content I have full access to” (or to “Open access content only”). In your results list, full-text articles are marked with a green open-padlock icon.

You can search within individual journal titles or across the whole database, and browse journals by title, discipline or subject. The 4 disciplines are Health Sciences, Life & Biomedical Sciences, Materials Science & Engineering, and Social Science & Humanities, and each discipline has a number of subjects.

You can use My Tools to create alerts, save citations and searches, and set up "My Favourite Journals".

Coverage varies according to each journal, but extends as far back as 1879.

Sage Research Methods Online is an online research tool with resources on research methods and statistics. It provides material to guide users through the research process: to assist in the understanding of research methods and in the actual selection, design, and application of a research method.

Content is sourced from more than 1000 books, reference works, journal articles, and instructional videos. The "Methods Map" is designed to assist those less familiar with research methods to find the best technique to use in their research.

In SRMO you can:

search using basic or advanced search

browse by topic, discipline, or content type

use the Research Tools section to access reading lists or a project planner, or choose a stats test

use the visual “Methods Map” to explore connections between more than 2,000 methods, theories, and terms.

CSU Library subscribes to two special components of this resource, which are available from within SRMO, or directly as follows:

SAGE Research Methods Online - Datasets is a collection of teaching datasets for teaching statistical and analytical techniques used in the social sciences. These are datasets taken from real research projects, but edited and "cleaned" for teaching purposes. They include:

Quantitative datasets drawn from large surveys, experiments, or government data sources, and simplified to make them easier to use.

Qualitative datasets such as interview transcripts, field study notes, and visual aids.

Each dataset comes with an explanation of the analytical approach, an example to demonstrate the method, and a review to reinforce the material. You can practice analyses yourself by downloading step-by-step guides and data files.

You can browse datasets by:

Method, such as ANOVA, chi-square test, or thematic analysis

Discipline, such as education, business, or political science

Data type, such as survey data, case notes, or interview transcripts.

SAGE Research Methods Online – Datasets is a component of the broader SAGE Research Methods Online, a comprehensive research tool to help with selecting, designing, and applying research methods.
